DURHAM — The University of New Hampshire just missed the top 10 in this year's ranking of party schools by The Princeton Review.

UNH came in at No. 11. Last year, it was ranked seventh.

The annual survey looks at the opinions of 120,000 students.

The University of Florida came in first place.

PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — Maine's Supreme Court overturned a lower court ruling that said the state acted reasonably in keeping an independent on November's U.S. Senate ballot.

Herbert Hoffman's campaign says it's shocked and surprised by the court's ruling, which effectively removes his name from the November ballot. Campaign Manager Lynn Ellis says the campaign's still studying the decision.

Hoffman attorney John Branson says the court ruled that a whole nominating petition page can be invalidated even if only one signature's found to be problematic.

In effect, this pushes Hoffman's signature total below the minimum needed to get his name on the ballot.

The Maine Democratic Party, which challenged Hoffman's petitions, calls Monday's ruling a victory for the rule of law.
